Clever Piece of Work Lands Thomas Debeoedetto Behind Bais Through a clever piece of work Thomas Debenedetto, who killed Oatalto Manzarro at Cornelius, supposably on the nisht of Jan. 5. was landed in the toils of the law at Spokane, Monday, and brought to the county jail by Sheriff Hancock. Assoon as the crime was known to the officers, Sheriff Hancock went to Port land and found out that all Ital ians had their foreign mail sent to Chicago in care of an Italian bank. He wired the Chief of Police of Chicaso to visit the bank and see if the murderer had mail there. The chief soon wired Hancock that Debenedetto had written the bank to hold his mail until further notice. Later the bank received notice that the fugitive had written to send his mail to Spokane, Wash., and Hancock at once wired the chief of police of that city. Deben edetto called for his mail the first of the week, and was taken intocustody. Hancock left Mon day evening for Spokane, and had no trouble over extradition. ueoeneietto nas admitted the slaying, but claims he did it in self defense. The condition of the body does not indicate that Debenedetto will have an easy time to sustain the self defense theory, as the victim's skull was crushed in by a blow from a mattock, and the wound penetrated the base of his skull. The slayer is a young fellow in his twenties, - and the two men had been working on the S. P. section, and lived together in a boxcar, where the killing was effected. The Prisoner talks fair English. He will doubtless be indicted and tried at the March term of circuit court. John Schlegel, of near Banks, was in the city yesterday, and called on the Arpus.
